I feel like we are missing the most important context.

He basically lit the fire that started the whole debacle.

He is known for his investigative journalism as mentioned. And he is from the Youtube sphere like Linus and has done collaborations with him.

Steve however, turned his eye of Sauron on Linus this time and called out inaccuracies in his content due to a rush to meet timelines and a huge bungle on a small company’s proprietary item.

This caused Linus to react badly and the community was pissed. Mud slinging started and an ex-employee’s sudden revelation of the toxic culture of the workplace(still not verified), had started a massive shitshow.

I like how people without any prompt all came to the same conclusion.

Nobody chose threads. It just got shoved down their throats.

Also, Mastadon doesn’t have the same marketing these companies do.

Things cost money.

Boo hoo really.

Sync is free.

There is a paid version sure. But the free version is still excellent.

I am Indian.

Never tried paneer in my life till I was almost 30.

Suddenly my life got brighter after I did.

Well. Shit.

Hope the .world is safe for now. Since you know… It’s the world.

What happened to lemmy.fmhy.ml?

They are the biggest, so the target is larger or at least more well known.

Is there a hydrohomies community here?

The only reason threads is this popular is because they have the marketing machine of Facebook and billions of dollars.

Plus they have monster hardware to support everything.

The fact that lemmy is where it is is already outstanding.

Tech giants fighting each other.

Interesting to see how they have all managed a system with each other that is so hard to switch around.
